Robbie the Black Labrador has a very muscular set of limbs, developed mostly due to intense training and squirrel-chasing. He is an excellent swimmer and is also very good with commands. So when his 2 doggie siblings got themselves stranded on a drifting canoe, Robbie was the first one to dive in for a rescue!

In the video below, we see Rusty the Redbone and Bullet the brindle Mountain Cur screaming for help from the canoe. The canoe has blown away due to a strong gush of wind. Dad gets worried and shouts a rescue command to Robbie, and the dog spontaneously splashes through the water to get to his siblings.
Robbie runs his powerful muscles to steadfastly swim to the canoe before it gets too far. He uses his wit and quickly grabs the rope that’s used to fasten the canoe. With the rope tightly locked in his mouth, he pulls the heavy weight of the canoe as he painstakingly swims to the shore.

Rusty and Bullet are glad to be back on dry land, but Robbie is completely exhausted. Dad checks on the dogs, and then takes the canoe to secure it to a stable spot.
